Only Tarrentino could write such an unreal character. Most people in his movies are just bland nothing with no backstory. Violence is all he has. Nothing else.
kind of a silly analogy though. if someone is ordering vegetarian food at a steak restaurant, they are probably a vegetarian, so they would just be sticking to their principals making the act not at all pointless.

Same goes for the countless men murdered by their wives. The power & control lies in the hands of the one with the gun. Women do have one big upper hand though; we live life on the defense so most of don’t get cocky and stupid. You guys should be on a FBI watch list.
@@xoxolovechristielynn Guys are just commenting on the fact that we live in a gynocentric society that hands them all the responsibility with zero authority. The fact that you want them "all on an FBI watch list" just furthers the point
I'm really curious if the hissing sounds she made while taunting him was in the script or if that was all just Bridget being fully in Character... cause damn... that has some seriously powerful symbolism. Very intense.
That was the most annoying part because it sounded ridiculous. It was like, she couldn't find any decent put downs, so she offered childishness. I would have laughed and said, "is that the best you got?" She would have been the one frustrated.
I miss Bridget Fonda on the screen these days. I know that she's happy being a wife to Danny Elfman and Mom, but it's her role in Jackie Brown that makes me miss her so much.
This incredibly tense parking lot windup and execution lead to the famous and incredibly hilarious line of enquiry from Sam Jackson’s Ordell character when he met up with Louis “You shot Melanie? Couldn’t you have just hit her? You shot her twice? Is she dead?…” 😂🤣 Just brilliant scripting, acting, and directing.
You seriously have to give credit to the camera crew. They did a back up walking shot without showing the camera reflection in any of the car windows. Also it is ,ore believable when they shoot the backseat shot and so not take out the rear view mirror.
Backseat shot shouldn't be too hard, just adjust the mirrior. They probably had the choice of where to place the cars in the lot, if you noticed one of the windows where rolled down where the reflection was unavoidable.
There were cameras but pretty basic, usually the size of a small suitcase, bright white and bolted to the corner of a building, not like the tiny, discrete 360 degree spyballs these days.
She's the type of girl that got away with bad behavior her whole life because of her looks & how easy she was to sleep with. That was her leverage. And for that, she thought she was untouchable. Guys wanted it, she knew it, so she amused herself with cheap thrills by degrading the toughest baddest men in order to boost her ego & pride. The same way a Lion tamer feels after taming a lion, she took pride in being the only person who could disrespect a badass man & get away with it- atleast so she thought.
@@WalterEKurtz-kp2jf it's true what he is saying. I know alot of ex hot girls and they would treat men like crap and now since there alot older they are not happy because men aren't putting up with there crap.
@Randy Alvarado agreed. Pretty much everything we say and do could be used against anyone with all the overly sensitive and humorless liberals these days.
No she wasn’t a great actress. But yeah she was fine as hell in this movie. Skanky (of course that’s the character) but damn!! She just pushed the wrong button!!
Not anymore. Fonda really let herself go, she looks completely unrecognizable now. It's like when actors where a fat suit and heavy prosthetics to play against type, but hers is real.

Everyone's got that ONE friend who is grating to the masses yet to them, that's their peoples and that was his peoples. I think Ordell probably forgives Louis for the bag, but coming up that light plus capping Melanie meant it was a wrap.
Perhaps not the best personality type to hang out with armed sociopaths . . . .
In all honesty I think this is De Niros best acting ever
I love all the movies he’s done but this ? There’s something he just gets with this part, all the looks, the nervous agitation
He’s just awesome
This is just De Niro acting normal.
This is not acting, this is the real De Niro! Have you ever heard him talk about politics, he's full of crap, psychotic!
When he told her "not 1 more fuckin word" she should've never spoke again.
When they got outside, she should have gone the opposite way and let him search for the car all alone!
He’s usually playing characters that are cool and in control. Louis is an incompetent loser
Great character by Bridgette Fonda, she nailed it. Loved it when she’s taunting Louis in the parking lot.
I have to say, he handled that better than Will Smith. She nagged him for three straight minutes before he resorted to violence 👌😎
ooh that's cold. :) :) :)
KEEP MY CAR'S NAME OUT YOUR F****** MOUTH!!! :D
Also Will redirected his violence on the wrong person.
Just saying...
Will don’t have to be nagged. He is suck a cuck it just takes an eye roll lol.
🔥
This manages to be so scary and real and yet so entertaining.
I think we've all been in Louis' position, we just haven't had the gun.
Oh we certainly all been the buddy 😆
Some chics can really push the wrong buttons
Like comedian Bill Burr said ... Of course there are plenty of reasons to hit a woman but you just don't do it.
Good for you man, cause if you've had the gun and did it, you deserve to be in jail.
@Documentary Detective III Excuse me sir, if I touch your behind...
And the entire audience stood up and cheered!
Not really, if you saw this in a movie theater then you will remember how loud that gunshot was.
When Samuel L. Jackson killed him for killing her, that gunshot was even louder.
@@bruce2357 That's not the reason he shot him
@@bruce2357 If that shopping bag had contained all of Ordell’s money, he wouldn’t have shot Louis. He didn’t trust Melanie, he made that clear earlier in the movie. If Melanie getting shot was the price to pay for Ordell to get his money, then he was fine with it.
@@michaellicko2746 Jackson also said "Couldn't you have just hit her?"
Also a good answer as to why maybe we shouldn't all be walking around with the "Nuclear Option" in our pocket.
SIck ass Yanks would we love GUNS kill KILL WAR WAR
This is a good example of "if you play with the bull, you get the horns"
And of all people Robert Deniro.
@@Peeter8 The real Robert is the opposite of his badass characters. Just like a certain other Trump deranged liberal celebrity and literal murderer by the name of Alec
A raging bull?
Noticed your pro pic, did you enjoy that movie? Haha. Was poignant but that 30 minute pie eating scene was rly tough
@@goseeaboutagirl I loved a Ghost Story, have you seen Green Knight? Its by the same director
That's one trait of a Tarantino script: He'll kill anybody. Every character is fair game...
It’s adapted from a book, so while you’re correct…it wasn’t his idea to kill her.
@@YEDxYED Thanks for the correction! I didn't read the book so I wasn't aware
She demonstrated total lack of self preservation instinct.
She is a Karen.
Bitches do be like that.
>white women
I mean, she got away with it for as long as she did with an arms dealer, of course she'd think she'd get away with it with Louis.
@@zer0_5um PHAAAAALEEEAAASE..... I'm a black dude... Our women are famous for it.
Everyman felt like this at some point when they don’t shut their noise hole.
We’ve all had women like this in our lives…as a lover, friend, sister, mother, aunt, etc. We’ve all had ‘em
“Had”??
Damn straight!!
In the words of Metallica “Sad but true”
I still got one.
"Had" LOL so you have solved the problem definitively.........
I can't believe this movie is 27 years old
Crazy huh.
We're getting old too!
@@kooskansloos4834 Yeah. getting older was kind of fun for a while. Like, I remember when people started to get married and it was like "oh, we're getting so old ha-ha-ha" when we were like 24. Now, it's not so funny anymore. It's like PLEASE STOP! lol
@@IsaacCline-ru7ls
Our asses used to be so beautiful 🤣🤣
I used to date a girl in my 20s that had this type of personality... She was a petite blonde. This scene gives me PTSD 🤣🤣
Was?
When I saw this scene and she taunted him until he killed her I laughed so hard I nearly fainted.
absolutely cathartic
u so edgy
Mayhaps u a little hmmmm ....... or well just remove L from name and put in a p then ur golden :D
You are so sigma
I remember laughing my head off in the theater when he blasted her!
Damn near sent her flying all you see is a mist of blood in the air!!
Ok 🤡
The first time I saw this scene, I also laughed my head off.

Husbands all around the world watch this on repeat with a beer.
This would be a great movie to lay the groundwork for a healthy relationship on a first date.
This is a brutally classic illustration of how some women imagine they have all the power and control. Until they find out they don't--the hard way.
Facts 💯
Same goes for the countless men murdered by their wives. The power & control lies in the hands of the one with the gun. Women do have one big upper hand though; we live life on the defense so most of don’t get cocky and stupid. You guys should be on a FBI watch list.
@@xoxolovechristielynn oh shut up

@@xoxolovechristielynn Guys are just commenting on the fact that we live in a gynocentric society that hands them all the responsibility with zero authority.
The fact that you want them "all on an FBI watch list" just furthers the point
She taunted him a little bit, a little bit
"I am gonna see how far I can push him." Well... you found out.
Bill Burr "Were you fucking with it?"
"were you poking it"???😂
Bill burr is the one that brought me here😂😂.
One of the most deserved spur-of-the-moment shootings in movie history.

LEWWW issssssssssssssssssssss
Isn’t this the chick that asked him if he wanted to fuck? now that’s a cool chick… that’s a chick worth putting up with.
Hopefully, for an instant, she realized she had fucked up.
the way she was pushing his buttons, i don't see a different outcome hahahah
Back when cameras weren't everywhere
Yes. Nowadays directors forgot about the camera as POV and limit of characters
I'm really curious if the hissing sounds she made while taunting him was in the script or if that was all just Bridget being fully in Character... cause damn... that has some seriously powerful symbolism. Very intense.
That was the most annoying part because it sounded ridiculous. It was like, she couldn't find any decent put downs, so she offered childishness. I would have laughed and said, "is that the best you got?" She would have been the one frustrated.
I miss Bridget Fonda on the screen these days. I know that she's happy being a wife to Danny Elfman and Mom, but it's her role in Jackie Brown that makes me miss her so much.
She had a nasty car accident which derailed her career
@Anne Brown. That rascal and crook shot her.
I thought she was great in Lake Placid. Sort of typecast however.
Ditto,her role in the movie,It could happen to You with Nicolas Cage.was such a beautiful piece of work for the heart.
@@butchie2752 She was hot in Godfather 111
That got her to finally shut up. Love it!
“Lewisssss” 😂😂😂
one of the most satisfying scenes of all-time.

"Not saying she deserved it, but I understand."
Notice how he shot her once so she’d know she messed up and then killed her
Extremely unjustified. You don't shoot someone over them calling you stupid.

As Sean Connery said you give her the last word and she still won't stop.

Yeah, the scumbag gets away with murdering people because he feels he's über entitled.
They didn't tolerate Karens back then.
🙄
Yep.
Bring back the good ol days...
She’s not a Karen. Don’t go there
@@animaljustice7774facts. Super Karen 🙌
This incredibly tense parking lot windup and execution lead to the famous and incredibly hilarious line of enquiry from Sam Jackson’s Ordell character when he met up with Louis “You shot Melanie? Couldn’t you have just hit her? You shot her twice? Is she dead?…” 😂🤣 Just brilliant scripting, acting, and directing.
Quantum Tarantino's got the best lines!!
Pretty much!
“Is she dead?”
“Pretty much”
Thanks Simon and Coalcreeker, for adding that cracking punchline finale from Louis 😂
Followed by one of my favorite quotes I still say to friends who let me down. What happened to you man, your ass used to be beautiful!
I remember watching this for the first time and I screamed "Thank you!" when he finally popped her.
You seriously have to give credit to the camera crew. They did a back up walking shot without showing the camera reflection in any of the car windows. Also it is ,ore believable when they shoot the backseat shot and so not take out the rear view mirror.
Backseat shot shouldn't be too hard, just adjust the mirrior. They probably had the choice of where to place the cars in the lot, if you noticed one of the windows where rolled down where the reflection was unavoidable.
This is one of my favorite parts of this movie. Idk how many times I've felt like doing this exact same thing.
Crazy to think the 90s really had no cameras any where and that would probably be a cold case
There were cameras but pretty basic, usually the size of a small suitcase, bright white and bolted to the corner of a building, not like the tiny, discrete 360 degree spyballs these days.
Even now , if he's not wearing his name on his shirt , they can't find him.
The cams back then were shit tier resolution. Also I don't think this dude thought much about consequences.
that guy that gave dinero the salute is a bail bondsman who was with the woman who gave melanie the bag of books and money
@@miggidymark oh really and you didn't think that he could have been in on it? You know them bail bondsmen are more crooked than a barrel of snakes!
yeah, I don't know, that's a close call for me. you could easily argue that was self defense 😂😂😂😂
She's the type of girl that got away with bad behavior her whole life because of her looks & how easy she was to sleep with. That was her leverage. And for that, she thought she was untouchable. Guys wanted it, she knew it, so she amused herself with cheap thrills by degrading the toughest baddest men in order to boost her ego & pride. The same way a Lion tamer feels after taming a lion, she took pride in being the only person who could disrespect a badass man & get away with it- atleast so she thought.

No she wasn’t a great actress. But yeah she was fine as hell in this movie. Skanky (of course that’s the character) but damn!! She just pushed the wrong button!!
OMG! I so remember this scene. I burst out laughing, then everyone in the theater started laughing. Not something I would do now.
That is Tarantinos speciality : making hyper violence seem funny and entertaining.

Not anymore. Fonda really let herself go, she looks completely unrecognizable now. It's like when actors where a fat suit and heavy prosthetics to play against type, but hers is real.
She earned every bit of that double tap !!
The dynamic between these 2 all through the film totally made this movie 👍
It’s like that typical brother sister fight where she thinks it’s just about annoying you and gaining some sort of ground on you for that day and you are ready to actually risk losing her completely lmao

@@Frankincensedjb123 Don’t ever make a movie.
@@grayalun Psychologically proven that one who accepts fiction brings that fiction to bear upon fact. Extensive research shows that the majority of those committing heinous crimes, view violent fiction. Whether it's fiction or fact, the human mind does not differentiate at the subconscious level. Once you step on the path, the journey begins. You, like so many other "lunatics" have begun your journey, if not to actual violence a desensitizing to that violence. Any one who enjoys this scene at ANY level is truly sick and is a threat to a stable society. Hollywood is full of sick people who imbibe violence on a regular basis, as well as sexual abuse and pedophilia.
@@Frankincensedjb123 Sorry buddy your grammar was more horrific than any violent movie or TV show, out there.

Better parenting is what society needs, films have age ratings for a reason as do video games.
